Abstract
An information handling system includes a dual in-line memory module (DIMM) coupled to a memory controller via a memory channel. A processor during a first in time boot process of the information handling system determines a first environmental condition of the information handling system, and initializes the memory controller and the DIMM to determine a first set of initialization parameters for the memory controller and the DIMM. During a second in time boot process of the information handling system, the processor determines if a second environmental condition is different than the first environmental condition, if the second environmental condition is not different then to continue the second in time boot process without initializing the memory controller and the DIMM, and if the second environmental condition is different then to initialize the memory controller and the DIMM to determine a second set of initialization parameters for the memory controller and the DIMM.
